Having tested FTTP for the last few months, its working just fine, plus I now have a proper static IP (VM are not officially static, they do rarely change). I can get 900+M for less than VMs 1G service (and on shorter contracts, and no web site blocking) and in reality, the difference is pretty small (in fact, on my current router, no difference at all since it struggles above 750M).
The main thing that has kept me with them is my wifes email address, but we have begun moving her off that onto a none ISP linked address.
I basically stopped using mine a few years ago.

Iirc their most recent figures did see a net reduction in customers for VM and maybe the next set of figures will see these losses accelerate when more and more customers realise exactly what they are locking themselves into with the current Virgin Media contract.
And like you, I'm almost certainly going to leave them as well and the main reason is the contract.
